Hey!

Would be great if you could answer an additional question:

  • When you salvage, do you salvage the whole derelict ship completely out of all resources every time?

Hi there!

Unfortunately PayPal was not possible to have enabled, even though we wish it was. Using prepaid online credit cards works too, and many have sucessfully used a site called ideal to accomplish this. Just make sure there's $1 more on the prepaid card than what is aimed to be pledged.

The above is some hassle though for sure. As others mentioned wishlisting the game on Steam is one thing you can do, we will work hard towards the early access release there.

I believe the wording was "floating in the air" or such on the limited multiplayer =) (trading for example).

So it's not planned currently for the limited multiplayer, but time will tell.

Regarding full multiplayer: The game is not designed to be a multiplayer experience and it would present a lot of new problems to solve, not to mention the amount of work regarding implementation. All of this time would be out of time that could be spent on the core features of the game. So yeah, heavily leaning towards creating the best single-player experience we can.

Greetings, Spacefarers.

We are heading out for a summer vacation here in Finland. We contemplated trying to squeeze in an update before the break but ultimately decided against it as it would have lead to a hasty update. We didn't want to shoot out an update in a hurry, cutting corners and risking things b... Read more

Space Haven Alpha 2 - The Fleet Update.

The more the merrier they say! Let's test out this theory. Space Haven now allows you to build multiple ships and form a fleet of spaceships. We've had to redesign and implement some new features to enable this.

The current implementation allows for a max of 2 very large 2x2 ship grid tile sized ships (Seen in scenario 2) or 8 small 1x1 ship grid tile sized ships. You can of course make a combination of these, and create various other sized spaceships such as 1x2 for example.

It's not a video. Reddit seems to grab the trailer from there, don't know how to turn that off.

Hey there =) Due to how the game has been designed, and the plethora of issues regarding technical problems, overall game play and user awareness; we have opted to stick with a single plane to build on. So right now we don't have plans to add z-levels.

Thank you for this!

I have been so positively surprised by how understanding so many of you have been. It really does mean a lot. We devs often have to fight our own fights to make things happen, and there definitely was battles to fight out to make this Alpha happen on time :) Systems needing to be set-up, new things to learn, waiting on payments to go through and rigorous checking that everything seems to be in order.

There was literally about a 100 messages mailed back and forth to get everything done.

And regarding the Alpha. Getting messages like: "There's a bug here but it's still early days!" feels awesome, it just makes it all feel like we're in this together instead of piling up a sh*t ton of pressure for us to deliver. As a game developer you're always a bit afraid that the game will not be enough.

Having someone take the time to say something positive is fantastic. So thank you! Players like you make game development a lot more fun.

Ok, guys. Listen up now, we have a mission. Try not to shoot your mate this time, our doctor can only do so much. And remember, unpinning a grenade in the shuttle is not a funny joke!
